Happy Wedding Day.

At Lucky's, Nikolas backs Siobhan up when she says getting married while Lucky is still grieving is a bad idea. Lucky assures them he is thinking clearly and wants to keep Siobhan around. Nikolas suggests they travel the world on his dime instead. Lucky is tempted, he but doesn’t want to run away because that will bring him one step closer to being his dad. Lucky turns to Siobhan and urges her to stay there with him and marry him. After more debate, Siobhan agrees to get hitched. Nikolas leaves, as Siobhan and Lucky get dressed for their nuptials. Before they head out, Lucky kisses her and says, "Happy wedding day."

Luke tells Tracy at Kelly's he is suing her. Tracy appeals to Alexis to tell him he doesn't have a case. Luke lists how he's been wronged, but Tracy tells Alexis if she considers herself Luke's friend, she will stay out of it. Alexis says she will look into it for herself, but suggests Tracy not try to change Luke into someone he doesn’t want to be. Alexis leaves and Tracy tells Luke she loves him and is trying to help him. She won't stop either one anytime soon. Luke declares he will sue her and win. He will make her sorry he ever darkened her door. She doesn't think he is strong enough to launch a full scale self-destruct and is upset he wants to make her hate him enough that she will stop loving him. She thinks that is a clear sign of how sick he is and urges him to get help.

After Elizabeth "sees" Jake again at the hospital in front of Lulu, she opens up to her former sister-in-law. Lulu listens and is sympathetic to her grief. Lulu assures her she always considers her family and urges her to call if she needs anything. Lulu leaves and Kelly finds Elizabeth. After some conversation about Jake, Kelly asks Elizabeth for her schedule. Elizabeth pulls it up and discovers Kelly has a fertility procedure scheduled for Sam.

Lulu meets Ethan at the Haunted Star. He wonders if they did the right thing with the intervention and suggests they reach out to Luke. Lulu replies that after her interaction with their father earlier that day, she's certain they need to cut him off for good. She knows Ethan will do what he wants and she won't judge him for it, but she can't promise she won't stop trying to get him to see things their way. Ethan doesn't think cutting Luke off will help. Alexis walks in to get their take on the situation with Luke. Lulu declares she knows Luke is an alcoholic and walks out. After Alexis has also left, Luke boards the boat. He says he doesn’t hold the intervention against his son and then offers Ethan a drink.

Sam and Jason talk about her surgery in the penthouse. She says she just wants the possibility of getting pregnant, but there's no pressure to actually do so. Molly runs in and expresses how excited she is they are finally having a baby. They tell her there are no guarantees and that they are taking things one step at a time. Molly remains optimistic and gives Sam her bear for good luck.

Jason brings Sam to the hospital and leaves to find her some ice chips. He runs into Elizabeth, who admits coming back to work so soon was more difficult than she expected. She lets him know she is aware of Sam's procedure. She is happy he might have a chance to be a father and is sorry he didn’t get to be one with Jake. They discuss how things might have been different if different choices were made. Jason tells her she can't second guess herself. Jason returns to Sam and tells her he ran into Elizabeth. He doesn't know how Elizabeth lives in the house where Jake lived. He says he couldn't do it. She asks if he wants to leave, but he doesn't because this is his chance to take care of her now.

Elizabeth makes a call for Lucky and learns he is getting married right now. She holds the DNA test and runs to the hospital elevator.

Nikolas shows up at the justice of the peace to be there for Lucky and Siobhan. He even brought the rings.

Sam and Jason need a baby like they need a hole in their head. And why don't they put a guard outside Jason's door to keep Molly out. That child needs to learn her place and hang out with people her own age. Her act use to be cute, but not any more. She is just annoying.

How can Luke sue Tracy for the Casino after he tried to burn it down? They should ask Luke to go one day without drinking. If he can't, then he will have his answer that he has a problem with alcohol. What's that they always say? I can stop when ever I want too.

I truly hate what they are doing to my Cool Hand Luke. What was the reason for having Franco around at the time of the accident. I still think he was set up and when all this is done they all will be sorry they messed with Luke. And Lucky is a pure fool marrying Siobhan. Get her boring self back to Ireland and call it Christmas. Jason and Sam with a baby..yeah right

Hi all.

So has everyone heard the rumor? Katie Couric might be replacing GH? TIIC really are blowing it. I said to a friend on the AMC board that if the new shows have posting boards we should all meet there & clutter it up w/off topic conversation. I have asked this question on 2 other boards today...Who is going to watch these new shows? We the soap fans will not. So who is left? NO ONE!!! I hope all the new shows fail & ABC sees what a mistake it was taking away our soaps. I wrote earlier that I had read Frons wanted to cancel all 3 soaps at once but couldn't announce GH because he didn't have a replacement. Well here it is. If the Katie deal goes through we may lose GH. Sad very sad.

Still watching today's epi. I'll be back to comment on it later.

Hello to all my poster friends.

I got this from TMZ. Did you guys hear this:

Katie Couric and ABC television are on the verge of signing a $20 million deal, which would give Katie her own talk show, as well as significant involvement in ABC News -- and the big casualty could be "General Hospital."

Sources connected with ABC tell TMZ -- under the deal that is in the final stages -- Katie would do specials for ABC News, "20/20," and do a significant amount of fill-in work -- including anchoring.

ABC would also give Katie a 1-hour, 5-day-a-week syndicated talk show, that would begin in September, 2012. Our sources say ... one option ABC is considering is giving its affiliates back the hour where "General Hospital" airs to make room for Katie. In other words, ABC would axe the third longest-running soap in history and the last one standing on ABC.

ABC is also realistic, believing that one of its two new 2011 syndicated shows will fail, leaving room for K.C.

We're told ... when the dust settles and ABC's daytime schedule gets rearranged, Katie would probably land in the 3 PM time slot.

BTW ... we're told Matt Lauer will NOT be part of Katie's show.

As for the moola, our sources say the entire package for Katie and her partner, Jeff Zucker is a $20 million GUARANTEE for the syndicated show -- and that's just for the the first year. We're also told Katie will get a "nominal amount" for her work in the news division

Is Liz racing off to the Justice of the Peace? I think so. Why do they stage these scenes to create maximum drama. Siobhan and Nik don't deserve to find out this way (if she goes through with it).

Luke sure looked ragged today. Wonder if he's been sleeping. I miss the old adventure seeking hero, wish some mystery would come up to take his attention off himself, that way some sort of healing could begin. Dwelling on it, interventions etc., aren't going to help him. Even if he went to rehab, he would still feel just as horrid sober as he does inebriated.

Off Topic on Rumor*******************

Say it isn't so. I used to like Katie Couric on the Today show, but think her moment has passed, don't think a talk show with her will succeed. Think doing stuff for 20/20 or 60 Minutes is more up her alley these days. No more talk shows!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think Jax is being a real jerk!! He must have forgotten how criminal his family is. Jerry has done way worse than Sonny and Jason. I hope Carly eats him alive

Hi Everyone! I have really missed this board but no longer read or post comments. The unmarked spoilers and/or unmarked responses to spoilers were ruining GH for me. Now I'm back to loving the show. I guess I really like to be surprised when I see the episodes.

I do feel it is necessary to weigh in on this whole GH cancellation topic. No one can replace Oprah and it's really stupid for AMC to be putting all their eggs in the 'talk show' basket. What makes them think that because one talk show is ending that we will suddenly want to watch not just one but multiple talk shows - none of which will ever measure up to Oprah.

If GH is canceled I'm going to boycott daytime TV. It won't be hard. Oprah and GH are the only shows I care about anyway.
